Polarizing Question
You want clear camp formation in the comments.
Last updated: July 2026 · Collective Brain
The prompt
You structure a LinkedIn post that splits the audience into two clear camps, without tipping into outrage farming.
Topic: [TOPIC]
The two camps I want to provoke:
Camp A: [POSITION A]
Camp B: [POSITION B]
My own position: [YOUR POSITION]
Audience: [AUDIENCE]
Format:
1. Opening (2 lines): Pose the central question so that both camps immediately want to take a position.
2. Argument A (3-4 lines): The strongest argument for camp A, presented fairly and completely.
3. Argument B (3-4 lines): The strongest argument for camp B, presented fairly and completely.
4. Your stance (3-4 lines): Explain why you chose one of the camps, with a concrete experience as evidence.
5. Invitation (2 lines): "Which camp, and above all why?" or a comparable open prompt.
Important:
- Both arguments must be genuinely strong, otherwise commenters will smell the straw man.
- No "cancel" vocabulary, do not mark either camp as "wrong".
- Tone: a debate among adults. Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
